Abstract

While conducting fieldwork in Croatia in 2000, the author identified and interviewed an elderly gentleman who was present when Milman Parry and Albert Lord recorded an epic singer in the village of Kijevo, Croatia, on 24 September 1934. During follow-up work, scholar Ante Jurić-Arambašić conducted interviews concerning the singer's biography. All material is here reported, translated, and interpreted for the purpose of thickening the corpus of Parry and Lord archival materials and for improving our reconstruction, based on the available evidence, of the traditions flourishing in the region during the first half of the twentieth century.
